Meanwhile,the excellent transport capability of heterojunction between FSS and PGaN facilitates electron transfer, that is, a response time as short as 65 s and a release time up to 27 s can be achieved merely at 150℃ under 50 ppm H_(2)S concentration, which has laid a reasonable theoretical and experimental foundation for the subsequent PGaN-based heterojunction gas sensor.The lowering working temperature and high sensitivity(23.5 at 200 ppm H2S) are attributed to the structure of PGaN itself and the heterojunction between SnO_(2)–SnO and PGaN. In addition, the as-obtained sensor showed ultra-high test stability.The simple design strategy of FSS/PGaN-based H_(2)S sensor highlights its potential in various applications.展开更多

The results show that both R(n/p) and R(t/~3He) have strong linear correlations with △R_(np) of different Ca isotopic projectiles from five different centralities. It is suggested that R(n/p) and R(t/~3He), from the same centrality, could be treated as possible experimental observables to extract the neutron skin or halo thickness for neutron-rich isotopic nuclei,including the nuclei near the neutron drip line.展开更多

Although extensive work has been done in recent years to explore the molecular mechanism underlying this disease, the pathogenesis of OA is still poorly understood and currently, there is no effective disease-modifying treatment for OA. Recently, both in vitro an, in vivo studies suggest that confirmed (TGF-β)/SMAD pathway plays a critical role during OA development This short review will focus on the function and signaling mechanisms of TGF-β/SMAD pathway in articula chondrocytes, mesenchymal progenitor cells of subchondral bone and synovial lining cells during OA development.展开更多

There are clear differences of the directed flows for isospin-related fragments neutron and proton,~3H and ~3He from ^(28)S+^(28)Si collisions.The differences in directed flows for neutrons and protons and ~3H–~3He from a proton-rich nucleus ^(28)S- induced collisions are noticeably larger than those from a stable nucleus ^(32)S- induced reactions under medium impact parameters. Thus, the yield ratios and differences in directed flows for the neutrons and protons and ~3H–~3He under medium impact parameters are proposed as possible observable items for studying isospin physics.展开更多

A 23-year-old woman presented with anaplastic oligoastrocytoma(WHO III) in a left temporal tumor. The patient received chemoradiotherapy after surgery in our center. Three years after treatment, the patient experienced multiple ECMs in the right lung, left iliac bone, and multiple swollen subcutaneous nodules including the right clavicle, back of the neck, left forearm, right upper arm, and right clavicle. The patient died of cerebral herniation at the age of 27 due to recurrent intracranial glioma. Treatment of ECM of glioma remains very challenging, and further investigations are needed.展开更多

文摘The yield ratios of neutron-proton(R(n/p))and^(3)H-^(3)He(R(^(3)H∕^(3)He))with reduced rapidity from 0 to 0.5 were simulated at 50 MeV/u even-even ^(36−56)Ca+^(40)Ca,even-even ^(48−78)Ni+^(58)Ni,and ^(100−139)Sn(every third isotopes)+112 Sn for full reduced impact parameters using the isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamics(IQMD)model.The neutron and proton density distributions and root-mean-square radii of the reaction systems were obtained using the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock model,which was used for the phase space initialization of the projectile and target in IQMD.We defined the unified neutron skin thickness asΔRnp=<r^(2)>^(1∕2) n−<r^(2)>^(1∕2)p,which was negative for neutron-deficient nuclei.The unifiedΔRnp values for nuclei with the same relative neutron excess from different isotopic chains were nearly equal,except for extreme neutron-rich isotopes,which is a type of scaling behavior.The yield ratios of the three isotopic chain-induced reactions,which depended on the reduced impact parameter and unified neutron skin thickness,were studied.The results showed that both R(n/p)and R(^(3)H∕^(3)He)decreased with a reduced impact parameter for extreme neutron-deficient isotopes;however,they increased with reduced impact parameters for extreme neutron-rich isotopes,and increased with theΔRnp of the projectiles for all reduced impact parameters.In addition,a scaling phenomenon was observed betweenΔR np and the yield ratios in peripheral colli-sions from different isotopic chain projectiles(except for extreme neutron-rich isotopes).Thus,R(n/p)and R(^(3)H∕^(3)He)from peripheral collisions were suggested as experimental probes for extracting the neutron or proton skin thicknesses of non-extreme neutron-rich nuclei from different isotopic chains.

文摘Objective:This study was aimed at analyzing the efficacy and safety of an injectable form of chlorogenic acid(CGA)in patients with recurrent high-grade glioma after standard of care treatments,through a first-in-human,open-label,dose-escalation phase I trial.Methods:A total of 26 eligible patients were enrolled,received intramuscular CGA injections at 5 dose levels,and were followed up for 5 years.CGA was well tolerated,and the maximum tolerated dose was 5.5 mg/kg.Results:The most common treatment-related adverse events occurred at the sites of injection.No grade 3 or 4 adverse events(e.g.,drug allergy)were reported for these patients except for induration at the injection sites.A clinical pharmacokinetic study showed that CGA was rapidly eliminated from the plasma,with a t_(1/2)of 0.95–1.27 h on day 1 and 1.19–1.39 h on day 30,and no detectable CGA was observed on days 9,11,13,23,25,27,and 29 before CGA administration.After the first treatment cycle,52.2%of patients(12 of 23)achieved stable disease.Long-term follow-up indicated an estimated median overall survival of 11.3 months for all 23 evaluable patients.Of the 18 patients with grade 3 glioma,the median overall survival was 9.5 months.Two patients remained alive at the cutoff day.Conclusions:This phase I study demonstrated that CGA has a favorable safety profile(with no severe toxicity),and provides preliminary clinical benefits for patients with high grade glioma relapsing after prior standard therapies,thus shedding light on the potential clinical application of CGA for recurrent grade 4 glioma.

文摘To analyze the degree and pattern of phenotypic variation in leaves of Tetracentron sinense Oliv from the perspective of genetic and environmental adaptation and thus contribute to effective evidence-based conservation and management strategies for germplasm resources,we measured 17 morphological and epidermal micromorphological leaf traits from 24 natural populations of T.sinense.Nested analysis of variance,multiple comparison,principal component analysis(PCA),cluster analysis,and correlation analysis were used to explore phenotypic leaf variation among and within populations and potential correlations with geographic and environmental factors.There were significant differences in 17 leaf phenotypic traits among and within populations.The mean phenotypic differentiation coefficient of the 17 traits was 56.34%,and the variation among populations(36.4%)was greater than that within populations(27.2%).The coefficient of variation(CV)of each trait ranged from 4.6 to 23.8%,and the mean was 11.8%.Phenotypic variation of leaves was related to environmental factors such as average annual sunshine hours,average July temperature,and average annual rainfall.The variation changed along gradients of longitude,latitude,and altitude.The PCA clustered the 24 natural populations into four groups.Our study suggests that phenotypic variation in T.sinense occurred primarily among populations,with moderate levels of phenotypic differentiation among populations and low levels of phenotypic variation within populations.The plant’s poor adaptability to the environment is likely an important contributor to its endangerment.Accordingly,conservation strategies are proposed to protect and manage the natural populations of T.sinense.

文摘The yield ratios of neutron/proton(R(n/p)) and ~3H=~3He(R(t/~3He)) with reduced rapidity from 0 to 0.5 are investigated for 50 MeV/u ^(42;44;46;48;50;52;54;56)Ca+^(40)Ca.This was conducted at whole reduced impact parameters using the isospin-dependent quantum-molecular-dynamics model in which the initial neutron and proton densities are sampled within the Skyrme–Hartree–Fock model, using which the neutron skin thickness(△R_(np)) is determined for different neutron-rich Ca isotopes. The results show that both R(n/p) and R(t/~3He) have strong linear correlations with △R_(np) of different Ca isotopic projectiles from five different centralities. It is suggested that R(n/p) and R(t/~3He), from the same centrality, could be treated as possible experimental observables to extract the neutron skin or halo thickness for neutron-rich isotopic nuclei,including the nuclei near the neutron drip line.

文摘Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint degenerative disease affecting the whole joint structure, including articular cartilage, subchondral bone and synovial tissue. Although extensive work has been done in recent years to explore the molecular mechanism underlying this disease, the pathogenesis of OA is still poorly understood and currently, there is no effective disease-modifying treatment for OA. Recently, both in vitro an, in vivo studies suggest that confirmed (TGF-β)/SMAD pathway plays a critical role during OA development This short review will focus on the function and signaling mechanisms of TGF-β/SMAD pathway in articula chondrocytes, mesenchymal progenitor cells of subchondral bone and synovial lining cells during OA development.

文摘The neutron-to-proton and3 H-to-3 He yield ratios, and the directed flows of particles dependent on a reduced rapidity, the transverse momentum per nucleon,and a reduced impact parameter are investigated for ^(28)S+^(28)Si and ^(32)S+^(28)Si systems at 50 and 400 MeV/u using an isospin-dependent quantum molecular dynamics model.The results show that these yield ratios of projectile-like fragments are approximately equal to the constituent neutron-to-proton ratio of the projectile. There are clear differences of the directed flows for isospin-related fragments neutron and proton,~3H and ~3He from ^(28)S+^(28)Si collisions.The differences in directed flows for neutrons and protons and ~3H–~3He from a proton-rich nucleus ^(28)S- induced collisions are noticeably larger than those from a stable nucleus ^(32)S- induced reactions under medium impact parameters. Thus, the yield ratios and differences in directed flows for the neutrons and protons and ~3H–~3He under medium impact parameters are proposed as possible observable items for studying isospin physics.

文摘BACKGROUND:Sepsis-induced liver injury is a fatal complication of sepsis.Trichostatin A(TSA)regulates inflammation and autophagy in some human diseases,and forkhead box O3a(FoxO3a)has been shown to regulate autophagy.The present study aims to investigate whether TSA exerts its effects on septic liver injury through the FoxO3a/autophagy signaling pathway.METHODS:A sepsis mouse model was constructed by the cecal ligation and puncture(CLP)method,and AML12 cells were pretreated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)(1μg/mL)to establish a sepsis cell model.Forty mice were divided into four groups,namely control group,TSA group,CLP group,and CLP+TSA group,with 10 mice in each group.Cells were divided into control group,TSA group,LPS group,and LPS+TSA group.Hematoxylin-eosin(H&E)staining and biochemical methods were used to evaluate liver tissue injury.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to detect the expression of proinflammatory cytokines,and Western blotting and immunofluorescence were used to measure autophagy-related protein expression.RESULTS:Compared with the CLP group(mice),the proinflammatory cytokines(interleukin-β[IL-β]2,665.27±324.90 pg/mL to 2,080.26±373.66 pg/mL;interleukin-6[IL-6]399.01±60.98 pg/mL to 221.90±46.89 pg/mL)and the hepatocyte injury markers(aspartate transaminase[AST]from 198.18±27.07 U/L to 128.42±20.55 U/L;alanine aminotransferase[ALT]from 634.98±74.10 U/L to 478.60±32.56 U/L)were notably decreased after TSA intervention.Moreover,LC3 II and FoxO3a showed an obvious increase and P62 showed an obvious decrease in the CLP+TSA group.Cell experiment results showed the similar trend.After Fox O3a gene was knocked down in AML12 cells,the promotion of autophagy and the improvement of liver enzyme index and inflammation by TSA were weakened.CONCLUSION:TSA may improve the inflammatory response and liver injury in septic mice through Fox O3a/autophagy.

文摘The Zintl compound Mg3Sb2 has been recently identified as promising thermoelectric material owing to its high thermoelectric performance and cost-effective,nontoxicity and environment friendly characteristics.However,the intrinsically p-type Mg3Sb2 shows low figure of merit(z T = 0.23 at 723 K) for its poor electrical conductivity.In this study,a series of Mg(3-x)LixSb2 bulk materials have been prepared by high-energy ball milling and spark plasma sintering(SPS) process.Electrical transport measurements on these materials revealed significant improvement on the power factor with respect to the undoped sample,which can be essentially attributed to the increased carrier concentration,leading to a maximum z T of0.59 at 723 K with the optimum doping level x = 0.01.Additionally,the engineering z T and energy conversion efficiency are calculated to be 0.235 and 4.89%,respectively.To our best knowledge,those are the highest values of all reported p-type Mg3Sb2-based compounds with single element doping.

文摘Si-dopedβ-Ga_(2)O_(3)films are fabricated through metal-organic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD).Solar-blind ultraviolet(UV)photodetector(PD)based on the films is fabricated by standard photolithography,and the photodetection properties are investigated.The results show that the photocurrent increases to 11.2 mA under 200μW·cm^(-2)254 nm illumination and±20 V bias,leading to photo-responsivity as high as 788 A·W^(-1).The Si-dopedβ-Ga2O3-based PD is promised to perform solar-blind photodetection with high performance.
文摘Extracranial metastasis(ECM) of glioma is a rare condition that occurs in the internal nervous axis. A 23-year-old woman presented with anaplastic oligoastrocytoma(WHO III) in a left temporal tumor. The patient received chemoradiotherapy after surgery in our center. Three years after treatment, the patient experienced multiple ECMs in the right lung, left iliac bone, and multiple swollen subcutaneous nodules including the right clavicle, back of the neck, left forearm, right upper arm, and right clavicle. The patient died of cerebral herniation at the age of 27 due to recurrent intracranial glioma. Treatment of ECM of glioma remains very challenging, and further investigations are needed.
